Hello to one and all
I am (another) David, just joined and, having scrolled through BERNADETTE's post, I seem to have joined an extremely friendly bunch.
I will post a few photos soon - particularly of Viet Nam where we have just been on holiday.
My question: RAW and JPEG: I have a K10D so I can choose between the two (or have both). JPEG images never seem to be > 3mg. Does this mean that for (all) cameras with no RAW then there is no point in having more than 3mg capability (apart from the relationship between the camera, its sensors and its processor).
i.e. IS 6mg, 8mg, 10mg without RAW capacity just a case of marketing. Sorry to show my ignorance: I am new to digital photography but not new to photography (Canon A1, multitude of lenses and filters etc).
Many thanks
David B
